Chapter 136 – 6-Academy (74)
Looking at the passage made by forcibly twisting the ground using metal powder, I moved the darkness as it was.
The reason why I chose pitch-black darkness is because of the fixation of this aisle.
This passage is a halfway hole made temporarily by my ability, so even if I continue to maintain it with lightning, there will inevitably be a gap.
And if you cover the gap with this darkness and completely block the gap, it will be maintained until you use this passage again later.
To enter the passage, I took off my armor and wrapped myself in the darkness, trying to enter the passage.
[But how do you deal with the darkness of demons? It’s so amazing]
“…Okay then let’s go in!”
I hurriedly entered the aisle.
The darkness led my body and moved quickly, cutting through the aisles and coming out of the Certina family’s garden in a corner.
“As expected, I didn’t prepare for coming to the land! There was no protection magic!”
[Hey! Don’t go over like that! Don’t proceed naturally!]
Darkness kept shouting something, but I expanded all my senses in all directions and began to detect the details, confirming the composition of the rooms, objects, and people inside the lord’s castle.
And I was able to find three special rooms that were not detected by my senses and electromagnetic waves.
“There are three safes in the housekeeper’s room on the top floor, a magic tool storage on the lower floor, and an unknown room in the basement!”
I grinned at the thought of robbing all three rooms I quickly found, and Darkness, seeing my smile, said as if he was patronizing.
[Huh… Well, it’s suspicious, but I’ll skip it for now.]
“Okay, you know what to do”
Having calmed Darkness like that, I first found a window that I could break into.
As expected, most of the windows were tightly locked, but only one window was closed, but not locked like the others.
“Whoops, the window on the other side is the bedroom, and looking at who is sleeping right now, it seems like they open the window when they feel uncomfortable while sleeping.”
[When I sleep, my cock is full and I need to fill it up so I can sleep soundly♥]
“Don’t talk about it in the meantime, you damn bitches of pervert.”
After listening to my words, someone was talking about his sleeping preference in an obscene voice, fearing that he might not be a pervert with the best performance, so I warned him in a voice that only Darkness could hear.
“Whoa… Now it’s really going up.”
[Okay! I won’t disturb you anymore!]
As soon as Darkness finished speaking, I raised my foot and put it against the wall.
The place where the window is now is the top floor area of the lord’s castle, and where I am currently is on the first floor.
Considering that this lord’s castle is about 10 stories high, it would be difficult to climb to the top without being noticed.
Except for me.
Clap! Clap!
“As expected, this building also used metal to build a house! Looking at the shape, is it a steel frame?”
As I expected, something like a steel frame was used to build the house, so I was able to attach my legs to the walls of the lord’s castle, and I went up quickly.
Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
I drew people’s attention with a strange sound of iron echoing with my footsteps, but the pitch-black darkness wrapped around my body prevented me from being noticed unless I looked closely.
Climbing the wall without being noticed, I soon arrived at an unlocked window.
In response, I first glanced at the window, checked carefully to see if there were people inside with electromagnetic waves or if there were objects or tools that would embarrass me, then slowly pushed the window aside and went inside.
Fortunately, the woman lying in bed was still sleeping well, covering her upper body with a blanket even after I entered through the window, as if she hadn’t noticed my intrusion.
At this, our attention was immediately moved to the safe hidden on this floor, and I grinned and shouted.
“Okay, with this, you must have entered the lord’s castle. First, let’s go to the housekeeper’s room.”
[I’m excited to see what kind of items are in the housekeeper’s room!]
We set our goals in one breath and left the room.
This time, the darkness was also used to block noise, so there was nothing to be discovered, and most of the maids and butlers were sleeping now, and very few maids were moving at this time, so the hallway was dark.
Under these circumstances, the probability of me being caught is zero, so I walked through the dark hallways with no one in sight.
“As expected, they are a prestigious family in magic! Even knowing that there is a possibility of an enemy invasion, they only made an interception system and not a detection system!”
The interception system installed in the Certina family is based on manual operation.
This is because it was created based on the confidence of the Certina family that ‘No matter how good an opponent tries to infiltrate, the protection magic cannot be pierced!’
That’s why I didn’t get caught even if I wandered freely in the hallway, and we arrived at the housekeeper’s room right away.
“There’s no one inside, so go in!”
This time, the housekeeper’s room, which he entered through the darkness, was extremely ordinary.
It was a very ordinary office, with a desk piled with a large amount of documents, a bookshelf with books of one kind or another, and a chair where you could sit comfortably and pay for documents.
Of course, it’s only on the outside.
Unusually, numerous paintings were lined up in the housekeeper’s room, and each of them was an expensive item that looked expensive even to an outsider who did not know about painting.
If most people see this painting, they would probably say that the wealthy head of the Certina family brought such an expensive painting to show off their wealth, but I don’t feel it.
According to my ability to detect by electromagnetic waves, I was informed of the hidden safe behind that picture, and I lowered the picture of the black ship where the safe was hidden.
Then, a dial-type safe with numbers 1 to 12 written on it and opening it by turning it sideways was revealed.
“The safe behind the painting is a safe hidden in an obvious location.”
[What? I thought it was a key, but it’s not a key? Then how do you plan to open it?]
Darkness asked in a worried voice, seeing a dial-type safe for the first time.
Apparently, an alarm would go off if the safe’s number was wrong or if it was forcibly opened, so I put my hand on the safe’s door and sent electricity.
Dismissed! Pajijiji!!
The current that flowed in did not know the number or hit it, but it flowed through the lock and forcibly opened the lock.
In the first place, against a person with lightning powers like me, even locking the metal safe is useless.
“Okay, so what!”
[Oh oh… It is expected. Looking forward to it!]
When the vault door was wide open, Darkness and I watched the safe with an expression of anticipation. When the safe opened, what appeared was a golden branch.
“…What is this? It’s a tree branch, but it’s golden? What is this…”
The majesty of the branches shining brightly in front of my eyes gave me a blank look.
I could tell that it was an incredibly noble and great item, but I couldn’t quite grasp what it was.
“Kkeuh… Let’s take care of it for now!”
Still, it was judged to be an important item, so he took the branch in his hand, and at the same time, enormous magic power gushed from the branch.
“What!? This magical power!”
I hurriedly suppressed it with my own magic at the force of magic that was so strong that even I was surprised.
I had to cover the bright golden light with darkness and suppress the exploding mana with my magic and wait until it calmed down.
Fortunately, it calmed down after I pressed it for a few minutes, and I sighed and stood up, thinking about where to store the golden branches.
I was going to dig through a few documents here and take only the important ones, so I figured there wouldn’t be any problems if I thought about it a little more relaxedly.
But at the same time I had that thought, I heard the door open behind me and someone entered.
“Patriarch here a… Who are you!”
“…Fuck, this is what you mean by saying… You shouldn’t ignore the wise men of old!”
The one who entered was an old man with white hair and a neatly trimmed beard.
At this, I shook my head and covered the old man’s mouth with my hand.
“I’m sorry, but I have to pass out!”
I said that and slapped the old man’s neck.
I didn’t intend to kill him, but I was planning on fainting, so I threw a blade, and the blade hit the old man’s neck and broke his neck.
“Ah… I killed him by mistake.”
[…That was a mistake]
I looked at the old man who had turned into a chilly corpse in an instant and put on a dazed expression for a moment, then threw the old man’s corpse under the head of the family room’s desk and at the same time quickly looked through the documents.
“Come out the devil. Where are you, devil!!”
I desperately tossed out what looked like hundreds of pages of papers and searched for papers related to demons. I was able to find only 5 papers after using it for 5 minutes. I immediately put the papers and twigs into my armor and left the office.
The old man must have been a butler. As soon as he went outside, he saw four butlers, and I paralyzed their bodies with lightning to immobilize them.
“I’m busy and now there’s no problem even if I get caught, so I die!”
I stretched out one finger and poked the butlers in the chest, sending an electric current through which the men’s hearts stopped.
Having quickly increased the number of corpses by four, I left the corpses behind and quickly went downstairs.
I was thinking of going to the magic tool storage as my next goal, but I skipped that place and went to the basement right away!
